30-day refund terms for first paid plan

  • The first paid plan has a 30-day refund offer. Request cancellation within 30 days of payment. Zeevou may refuse for fraud, abuse, unlawful use or broken terms. Monthly plans end with the billing period. Yearly plans require at least 12 months and 30 days’ renewal notice. Check the final-month cancellation rule. Unpaid bills, linked price plans and active bookings may block cancellation.

Choose a channel manager for your booking sites — Hosthub vs NextPax vs Zeevou

List your booking sites and the jobs each link must do. Rates, open dates, bookings and cancellations can follow different rules. Check those rules before adding a tool. Check whether the offer is a full suite, extra channel links or managed help.

Hosthub: what to consider

Plan the move of old bookings with care. The first link does not import them. Date blocks made by hand are not booking imports. Check extra charges for website and booking-engine tools. Read the Hosthub profile for its plans and requirements.

NextPax: what to consider

Ask if your property count qualifies. The listed plans target larger operators. Check the exact links in your quote. A broad sync claim does not prove that all channels handle changes the same way. Read the NextPax profile for its plans and requirements.

Zeevou: what to consider

The paid Channel Manager is separate from free Core calendar links. Check rooms, units, modules and channel setup. OpenAPI guides do not prove that every plan lets you build custom software links. Read the Zeevou profile for its plans and requirements.

Explore all booking-site management tools, what booking-site connections can cover, booking-site services and channel managers to continue your shortlist.

Common questions

Where should I edit listings when using Hosthub, NextPax and Zeevou?

Decide which system controls rates, open dates and listing text. Check the sync mode before editing both sides. One system may own prices while another owns photos. Write down where your team should make each change.

What should I check after connecting one of these tools?

Match each home to the right listing. Check future bookings and manual blocks, then look at dates and prices on each booking site. Go far enough to inspect the offer, but do not complete a test booking unless you intend to buy it.

Should I block maintenance dates in Airbnb or Hosthub?

Use Hosthub for those blocks when using its documented Airbnb connection. The guide says it receives actual bookings, not manual Airbnb blocks or inquiries. It gives the same advice for Booking.com. Check the dates on linked sites after making the block.

Do I need a new Airbnb host account to connect NextPax?

No. NextPax has a setup route for the host account you already use. In NextPax Core, open the channel settings and choose Add existing host account. Follow those steps. Do not assume this alone brings in every past booking.

What should I check if a Zeevou listing fails to connect to Vrbo?

One cause can be missing or invalid listing content. Zeevou says Check notifications shows what needs fixing. Photos may be too large, or text too short. Fix the listed issues before the next sync attempt. Do not assume every failed link has the same cause.
